Justice David Wecht, son of Cryil Wecht, switched to independent. He cited the extremist democrats for not representing his and the people who elected him, positions.
This is happening across the democrat party.
From 1998 to 2001, years that preceded my judicial career, I served as Vice-Chair of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party. In the quarter century that has passed since then, the Democratic Party has changed. Nazi tattoos, jihadist chants, intimidation and attacks at synagogues, and other hateful anti-Jewish invective and actions are minimized, ignored, and even coddled. Acquiescence to Jew-hatred is now disturbingly common among activists, leaders and even many elected officials in the Democratic Party.
I can no longer abide this. So, I won’t. I am no longer registered within any political party.
